Group 1: CHFS direct certification public school students –
Currently enrolled students who are receiving SNAP benefits on an active EBT
card will automatically receive additional funds for P-EBT added on to their
existing card beginning this week. Currently enrolled students who are
receiving Medicaid or KTAP benefits based on income levels below the NSLP
income guidelines, or who are in Foster Care, will automatically receive a
P-EBT card in the mail.
Group 2: All other eligible public school students –
Beginning June 1st for 30 days all other eligible public school families will
be able to opt-in to receive the benefit by applying on https://benefind.ky.gov/ . Benefits
will be processed immediately upon confirmation that the student had access to
free or reduced lunch.
In order to apply for benefits as part of Group 2, families
are required to submit each child’s statewide student ID (SSID) number. Parents should utilize the Infinite Campus
Parent Portal to access your student’s SSID number. Once the parent has logged in, the student
number can be seen from the “Today” screen selection. If a parent needs assistance with the Parent
Portal, use the following link: https://www.infinitecampus.com/audience/parents-students/help-center
